Research could save fuel, reduce vehicle emissions

A system developed by Waterloo Engineering researchers could help organizations with service vehicles save money and reduce emissions by putting waste energy to good use.

“Given that most companies or governments cannot afford to transition their entire fleets over to cleaner vehicles all at once, this system could represent a cost-effective way to make current vehicles more fuel efficient in the short term,” said Amir Khajepour, a professor of mechanical and mechatronics engineering.
